It's already well established that xXx: Return of Xander Cage has a serious problem with the laws of physics, and now its latest trailer is going after the basic moral underpinnings of human society. Should you play with explosives in a crowded nightclub? Is it acceptable to jettison a group of people who mean you no harm out of the back of a cargo plane? The answers may surprise you.

Vin Diesel's boss lets him knock a dude out as a "welcome back" surprise

Concussions are really bad for you!

He launches a bunch of unprepared guys out the back of a plane

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
